The Cincinnati Bengals’ Thursday practice was one full of uncertainty. Rookies Amarius Mims and Jermaine Burton, as well as tight end Cam Sample, all had to step away from training due to injuries.

New updates are now out, and it looks like both rookies aren’t dealing with anything serious. While Mims was visibly carted off to the locker room with cold towels around his neck, the offensive lineman claimed that he’s fine and refused to divulge why he was sidelined from the day’s activities (per Pro Football Network’s Jay Morrison).

As for Burton, NFL insider Jordan Schultz reports that the wideout suffered “only an ankle tweak” and left practice as a precautionary measure.

No major update has been divulged yet about Sample, who was also carted off the field with an apparent lower body injury. All in all, many reports indicated that Thursday’s practice had blazing temperatures. The heat could have played a big role in everything that happened, much to the dismay of the team.
